Discussion: #1: jimbo bigcreed (dimble_thricefoon) (2009-07-16 17:19:51) I would very much like to see opensuse 11.2 ship with X.org 7.5/xserver 1.7. with opensuse's longer release cycle it seems daft to lumber 11.2 with a year 2008 X.org release in a distribution whose life-cycle mainly covers the year 2010. especially for the sake of a few weeks. #2: Dean Hilkewich (deanjo13) (2009-07-24 19:58:23) (reply to #1) In case you haven't heard they have again delayed the release and are now hoping to get it out in Sept. #3: Stephan Kulow (coolo) (2009-07-29 10:43:47) (reply to #2) thanks - that kills the feature #4: Mukul Singhal (mukuls) (2009-08-11 20:17:49) Still I would love to have X.org 7.5 available as update in 11.2 asap. I hate seeing openSUSE lacking behind Ubuntu. #5: Matthias Hopf (mhopf) (2009-08-12 12:11:34) (reply to #4) We will not change the version number of X with an online update for a released product if there is not a very good reason for that. For those that want to test the bleeding edge there is always X11: XOrg. #6: Dean Hilkewich (deanjo13) (2009-08-26 19:05:59) (reply to #4) Actually Ubuntu isn't including them as well in their next release. http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=NzQzNA #7: kevin vandeventer (pilotgi) (2009-10-24 01:00:47) When will we see xserver 1.7 in X11:XOrg? #8: Stefan Dirsch (sndirsch) (2009-10-24 01:16:07) (reply to #7) After openSUSE 11.2 has been released we can work on updating X11:XOrg to X.Org 7.5.
